![]() Instead of heading to the beach, they decided to stay inside and write a song that would transport them to the winters of their youths. Lyricist Sammy Cahn and composer Jule Styne had to use their imaginations when writing "Let It Snow." The two were struggling to endure one of the hottest days on record in Southern California in July 1945. "Let It Snow" was written during a heatwave. So feel free to continue singing "Let It Snow" into the New Year and beyond. Fire, popcorn, and winter weather are all mentioned, none of which are uniquely Christmas-y. And if you’re looking for even more Tears of the Kingdom fan arrangements, check out this 8-bit cover of the game’s main theme."Let It Snow" has become a regular part of radio stations' holiday playlists, along with tracks like "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer" and " All I Want for Christmas Is You." But unlike those songs, "Let It Snow" contains no references to Christmas. If you’d like to hear more from GameChops, the channel recently uploaded this lofi tribute to Tears of the Kingdom. Check out GameChops on YouTube here and Super Piano 64 on YouTube here. Gamechops is known for producing great music featured in video games, and Super Piano 64 has put out countless piano versions of songs from the Legend of Zelda series. Super Piano 64 really achieves a marvelous flow in this song! I hear the melody of the “Song of Time” a little bit after the beginning of this track. Another track that I can’t stop playing is Track 15, “Wind Temple.” This track has some subtle hints as to where it came from in the timeline of Zelda soundtracks. This piano track has a similar feel to Breath of the Wild‘s vast piano movements, and it resonates with heavy sustain between the melody and chords. Track 14, “(Title Unknown )Dm_RT_0035_,” has such a fluttering melody. It’s one of the first tracks I remember from that game, and the version that Super Piano 64 plays has a very nice somber tempo, giving the main riff of the song a more floating sound. As a solo piano piece, it really fits with the Rito environment and has a music box-esque feel to it.Īnother familiar track to veteran Zelda fans is Track 8, “My Home.” You may recognize this as the theme to Link’s house in Ocarina of Time. ![]() ![]() Track 6, “Rito Village,” is also a waltz. It’s presented as a waltz and has a sweet innocence to it. Track 3, “Serenade to Kaysa,” has a very hopeful and whimsical melody which really fits well as a theme to one of the Great Fairies. This is displayed by the changing of octaves to lower and higher notes and chords. It has various levels, like the map itself. Let’s start at the beginning with “Tears of the Kingdom (Main Theme).” This is the track that has gotten the most publicity ever since one of the game’s first trailers, and this solo piano version really does the song justice! I feel that it captures the essence of the entire game. There are quite a few tracks from Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom ~ Relaxing Mix that are particularly brilliant. ![]() This compilation of songs from Tears of the Kingdom covers a lot of the game’s main areas and is sure to spark some memories of your playthrough of the game. They learned how to play the tracks even before they knew what they were titled! That’s quite an amazing accomplishment! If you look at the track listing, there are some pieces that don’t even have official titles, which means that when approaching these songs, Super Piano 64 had to figure them out by ear. Listening to these solo piano versions really brings out the little elements and complexities of the melodies in each track Super Piano 64 clearly has an incredible ear for learning these pieces. In Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom ~ Relaxing Mix, which was arranged by the talented Super Piano 64, each piano piece is a beautiful rendition of a song from Tears of the Kingdom‘s vast original soundtrack. ![]()
